- Type:gfx/edit
- Requires:guigfx.library, render.library; look in dev/misc

- [New since 1.1:
- * Animations :-)...
- You do them making your projects depend on an extra parameter,
- and picFX renders them for all values of some range, and then
- saves the resulting pictures
- * Expressions in filenames, useful for dynamical loading in animations
- * Some confirmation requesters added
- * Menus added
- * Pretty "About" window ;-)
- * A few shortcuts (R,G,B; menus)
- * Some bugs removed and some other minor improvements
- ]

- -*-*-*-*-*-*-
-
- This program lets you mix, deform or create picutes using functions.
- You can open as many windows as you want, each one can be either an
- image or a function.
-
- The program calculates your r(x,y) g(x,y) and b(x,y) functions and
- writes a pixel of these red/green/blue components. You can refer to
- other projects in a formula:
- r(2,x,y) = 255-r(1,x,y)
- g(2,x,y) = 255-g(1,x,y)
- b(2,x,y) = 255-b(1,x,y)
- would output a negative version of project number one.
-
- r(3,x,y) = (r(1,x,y)+r(2,x,y))/2
- g(3,x,y) = (g(1,x,y)+g(2,x,y))/2
- b(3,x,y) = (b(1,x,y)+b(2,x,y))/2
- would mix projects one and two into project three.
-
- r(1,x,y) = x
- g(1,x,y) = y
- b(1,x,y) = 255-(x+y)/2
- would produce a nice spread..
-
- This program is completely multi-tasking! Every time a rendering is
- started, a new task is created and its priority is a little lower
- than the main task, so the main program isn't slowed down when
- projects are rendering!
-
- Amazingly fast rendering :-))
-
- There is a friendly and intuitive user interface using MUI.
-
- You have wide control over running projects: you can pause or change
- the sub-task priority while it is running directely from the
- user-interface. You can also hide windows to avoid cluttering the
- screen. Then you won't even remark that the computer is hard working
- on those projects :-)
-
- Locale support; available languages (the guide is English-only):
- - Deutsch
- - English
- - Français
- [Any translator is welcome! Please send me your translations!]
-
- Although this program is postcardware, it has no restriction. You can
- unpack and use it without limitation now!
-
- Written in AmigaE, full source-code is included (MUI custom classes
- with custom methods and attributes, Exec lists, tasks and ports,
- dynamic assembly code generation, iff file creation/parsing... are used).
